Samuele Ricci has attracted the interest of several big clubs, following the success with Torino, and AC Milan are one of them. In fact, according to a report, we could even be in for a mercato derby with inter.
Ricci has had big eyes on him ever since his days at Empoli and after an initial learning curve at Torino, joining them in 2022, he has now found his stride. He has started in all 17 league games this season and is playing with great personality under Paolo Vanoli’s leadership.
As such, it’s not exactly surprising that several big clubs are keeping an eye on the 23-year-old, who seems keen on making the big leap in the summer. According to Nico Schira, although the current contract will expire in 2026, there is no agreement in sight for a renewal.
This suggests that the player is willing to consider a departure, and it could prompt Torino to cash in while they can. As the journalist adds, the likes of Milan and Inter are monitoring the situation closely, along with a few Premier League clubs.
Niccolo Ceccarini stated yesterday that Ricci is Milan’s dream signing for the summer, so it remains to be seen if the management will make a proper attempt in six months or so.
